    This tour was fantastic! Neda is very knowledgeable and informative. She took care to explain the history of each of the districts we visited and told us many interesting tidbits about each one. The tour pace was perfect. We were given adequate time to go in the churches along the route. She answered all our questions with accuracy. This tour was the highlight of our trip to Paris.

    I highly recommend our tour guide, Neda, who is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining! I wanted to introduce my grandson to Paris for the first time. A walking tour is the only way to discover the best of Paris and avoid its ever-present traffic congestion and Summer Olympics events.

    Such a lovely experience going on this tour with Neda! She was so engaging and really made this trip memorable. The walking tour was the best way to get a real feel of the charm of the city. No stress of traffic, just taking in the surroundings at our own pace! Thank you Neda!

    It couldn't be better, we ALL loved this tour. These few hours walking around and discovering 'The Old Paris" guided by Neda, excellent tour guide and perfect connoisseur of the city were worth and beyond what we paid for this tour. We recommend this half-day walking guided visit if you really want to deepen into the history and present life of the City of Lights/Light City. Very important, we avoided the awful traffic and headache associated to it when visiting any big city, and remember, "Paris vaut bien une messe" - Paris is well worth a mass!
